[POWERPC] cpm_uart: Allocate DPRAM memory for SMC ports on CPM2-based platforms.
This patch allocates parameter RAM for SMC serial ports without relying on
previous initialisation by a boot loader or a wrapper layer.
SMC parameter RAM on CPM2-based platforms can be allocated anywhere in the
general-purpose areas of the dual-port RAM. The current code relies on the
boot loader to allocate a section of general-purpose CPM RAM and gets the
section address from the device tree.
This patch modifies the device tree address usage to reference the SMC
parameter RAM base pointer instead of a pre-allocated RAM section and
allocates memory from the CPM dual-port RAM when initialising the SMC port.
CPM1-based platforms are not affected.
